Soil: Moderately fertile, moist, well-drained soil
Rate of growth: Average
Flowering period: May to October
Hardiness: Fully hardy
This aromatic semi-evergreen shrub will make a very handsome addition to both the herb garden and the mixed border. The young foliage can be used to flavour food and adds a distinctive flavour to soups, stews and salads. From midsummer to early autumn it produces very pretty deep blue flowerspikes, which help attract beneficial insects into the garden. A beguiling and versatile plant that is good in patio pots and can be used as low hedging.
